(Durian and rambutan have two growing seasons in some
areas).

Note: The availability of
these fruits will vary. While mango season begins early in the Philippines and Thailand
- in March and April respectively - they normally do not start arriving in North
America until May. In some areas of North America, certain types of tropical
fruit can be grown locally and are available year-round. Both mangoes and litchis,
for example, flourish in the hot
Florida climate.

(Besides Australia itself, the primary market for Australian-grown tropical
fruit is China and Southeast Asian countries such as Thailand - they import
Australian tropical fruit in the off-season).
